This woman is amazing! She has inspired me to be as organized and frugal as possible when it comes to grocery shopping. She feeds 6 people for $200 a month, and posts her shopping trips and meal plans. Pin now read later- always skeptical of these b/c most seem to be couponers that eat foods from a box. I'd love to find someone cheap that eats produce and clean food! Omg I love her bread recipes!

Awesome! We spend $400 a month for a family of 6! Certainly takes careful planning...

Also noticed your kids are all under 5 yrs. old...ours are 3, 10, 12, & 13 (three boys and one girl). My 13 yr. old son eats 3x's more then his father! I don't coupon enough to even claim that I do...but our bill is still $400 for the month. Careful meal planning is a must for us!

This is what's been missing from my menu planning- a place to store recipes for each week- must make & utilize asap!

Menu Organizer & Magnetic Recipe Holder for the inside of a cabinet - store your week's recipes in the folder up top, and leave the cabinet open when cooking to use the magnetic recipe card holder. So doing this! #diy #organizing

Always searching for menu planners that work for a variety of people. This looks good.

Like this idea of pulling out this week's recipes when I meal plan and putting them inside pocket for the week!

Interesting idea.... need to look at the recipes they have to offer...

This is such a good idea! I need to start using it again. Bought recipe packs from them before, but made my own pocket and have added my own recipes. It sure simplifies life!

Pocket Meal Planning: What a cool idea! I used a very simple version of this when the girls were young and picky. It was a spiral notebook cut into three sections. Top third listed meat/main dish choices (spaghetti, grilled chicken, stir fry, etc.); middle third was a veggie side (frozen mixed veggies always a fall back! or sauteed rainbow chard, or green salad or fruit salad); last third was a starch (noodles, rice or potatoes). Gave MMM a way to feel in control of our menus...but it fell to the wayside of our busy lives. This may be a more sophisticated way to pick it back up again.
